The Abandoned Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

Trends of the nuclear families
Their speed of life journeys
Often makes them in such grave mistakes
And commit such grave offences.

Trends of present day family set up
No one to give a counsel in strains
Decisions differ and makes mistakes
Against the spirit and character of humans.

The aged are the real sufferers
No one to look after in their old age
Mothers are abandoned in solitude
As a useless article sometimes.

Had the stories of Mother in laws
Who makes problems for the daughter in laws
The things are fast changing
The real daughter in laws makes mistakes.

Father and mother are the main supporters
In a family of contented ones
They must get sufficient support and assistance
They have traveled much and got tired.

Stories of abandoned mothers and fathers
In the busiest towns and crowded places
Reports coming in day by days we see
The cruelty and injustice is unpardonable.

Old age homes thrives here and there
The problem doesn't solve there
The real medicine of love missing
Rise to the occasion dear ones of society
Give a solution for the problem of elders.
